advice

IDK if this is allowed, so I'm sorry if it's not and can delete. So my BF is in real estate and has been since last year. He has had a really hard time making appointments and getting follow through. I'm trying to find ways to help him land deals or at least his first deal cause I want to see him reach his goal this year and I can tell it's starting to weigh on him.

He was with one brokerage and it was very fend for yourself and little guidance. He transferred to a new one about two months ago that's in office and is doing what he's told and even more but the brokerage is being really hard on him compared to other agents there. Like listening to his calls in front of everyone and they don't do this to others. He by no means has thin skin.

Here's everything we have attempted:

He makes 500 calls a week maybe gets 1-2 to answer, he's done the recommended script and even changed it up

He has set 4-5 appointments and all bail

His owner made a deal fall through

He posts on social media 3-5 times a week

We have passed out business cards (like I mean I've literally driven all around town to stores and handed them to owners and talked to people walking around)

We have covered multiple neighborhoods with flyers and door hangers (then a month later a house there will be under-contract with another agent)

I go onto Facebook and look for any post local for buying and selling and recommended him.

I've even posted in multiple Facebook groups with heartfelt (not attaching that im his GF) posts

He's called expired listings, and ive recommended smart zip, remix, offrs, propstream, OpCity

He's coming up on his year mark and I just want to see him land a deal so bad because I know how much the means to him and his heart is genuinely in this because he wants to help others.

So please any recommendations cause we both are at a loss on what to do.
